It isn't a huge surprise that Netflix is making a second season of A Series of Unfortunate Events -- the first one ended with a clear promise of making the next book -- but the way they made the announcement took a few steps.

Video: Netflix's A Series of Unfortunate Events has a number of visual effects in it, since it's a show with a number of strange and unreal settings, action and fantastical creatures and devices. But the thing that will haunt you is the baby.

Predicting the future is near impossible -- but that doesn‘t stop us all from having a red hot go. Human beings have been predicting the future since the beginning of history and the results range from the hilarious to the downright uncanny.

One thing all future predictions have in common: they‘re rooted in our current understanding of how the world works. It‘s difficult to escape that mindset. We have no idea how technology will evolve, so our ideas are connected to the technology of today.

Video: Usually, marketing for a TV show tries to get you to tune in as much as possible. Netflix's A Series of Unfortunate Events adaptation, however, is trying something a little different: Telling you to turn off at all costs, at all times, even during its own opening credits.

Video: "If you are interested in stories with happy endings, that story is streaming elsewhere," warns Lemony Snicket (Patrick Warburton) at the start of this latest trailer for Netflix's A Series of Unfortunate Events.

Video: The first actual footage from Netflix's Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events is here. And while it's interesting to see the show's aesthetic, the real highlight is the full reveal of Neil Patrick Harris' villainous Count Olaf.
